FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to cyclohexyl-1,4-diamine compounds, processes for preparing such compounds, pharmaceutical formulations comprising these compounds, methods of making such pharmaceutical formulations and the related methods of treating or inhibiting certain conditions or disorders.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The treatment of chronic and non-chronic states of pain is of great importance in medicine. There is a worldwide need for pain therapies which are highly effective. The urgent need for action for targeted treatment of chronic and non-chronic states of pain appropriate for the patient, by which is to be understood successful and satisfactory pain treatment for the patient, is documented in the large number of scientific works which have been published recently in the field of applied analgesics and of basic research into nociception.

Conventional μ-opioids, such as morphine, have a good action in the therapy of severe to very severe pain and are of very great importance for pain therapy. However, it may be of advantage if, in addition to the μ-opioid receptor, other opioid receptors, in particular the ORL1 receptor, are influenced since pure μ-opioids also have undesirable side effects, such as constipation and respiratory depression, and can also lead to dependency. The δ, κ and ORL1 opioid receptors are also involved in the pain event (Opioids: Introduction, p. 127-150, Further Opioid Receptors, 455-476 in: Analgesics—From Chemistry and Pharmacology to Clinical Application, Wiley VCH, 2002).

It is moreover known that influencing of the reuptake of serotonin and/or noradrenaline can have a favourable effect on the action spectrum and spectrum of side effects of opioids (example: tramadol, cf. Opioids with Clinical Relevance: Tramadol, 228-230 in: Analgesics—From Chemistry and Pharmacology to Clinical Application, Wiley VCH 2002).

The ORL1 receptor is moreover also involved in regulation of further physiological and pathophysiological processes. These include, inter alia, learning and memory development (Manabe et al., Nature, 394, 1997, p. 577-581), audition (Nishi et al., EMBO J., 16, 1997, p. 1858-1864) and numerous further processes. A review article by Calo et al. (Br. J. Pharmacol., 129, 2000, 1261-1283) gives an overview of the indications or biological processes in which the ORL1 receptor plays a role or with high probability could play a role. There are mentioned, inter alia: analgesia, stimulation and regulation of food intake, influence on μ-agonists, such as morphine, treatment of withdrawal symptoms, reduction in the addiction potential of opioids, anxiolysis, modulation of movement activity, memory impairments, epilepsy; modulation of neurotransmitter secretion, in particular of glutamate, serotonin and dopamine, and therefore neurodegenerative diseases; influencing of the cardiovascular system, initiation of an erection, diuresis, antinatriuresis, electrolyte balance, arterial blood pressure, water retention diseases, intestinal motility (diarrhea), relaxing effects on the respiratory tract, micturition reflex (urinary incontinence). The use of agonists and antagonists as anoretics, analgesics (also in co-administration with opioids) or nootropics is also discussed.

Structurally related compounds which have an affinity for the ORL1 receptor are known from the prior art (WO 02090317). No influence on the reuptake of noradrenaline and serotonin has hitherto been described for this structure class.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The object of the present invention was to provide medicaments which act on the opioid receptor system and are therefore suitable for medicaments, in particular for treatment of the various diseases associated with this system according to the prior art, and for use in the indications mentioned there. The compounds should furthermore influence the reuptake of noradrenaline and serotonin.

The invention therefore provides substituted cyclohexyl-1,4-diamine derivatives of the general formula I

The substances according to the invention have an action, for example, on the μ-opioid receptor, which is relevant in connection with various diseases, so that they are suitable as a pharmaceutical active compound in a medicament. The invention therefore also provides medicaments comprising at least one substituted cyclohexyl-1,4-diamine derivative according to the invention and optionally suitable additives and/or auxiliary substances and/or optionally further active compounds.

In addition to at least one substituted cyclohexyl-1,4-diamine derivative according to the invention, the medicaments according to the invention optionally comprise suitable additives and/or auxiliary substances, thus also carrier materials, fillers, solvents, diluents, dyestuffs and/or binders, and can be administered as liquid medicament forms in the form of injection solutions, drops or juices, as semi-solid medicament forms in the form of granules, tablets, pellets, patches, capsules, plasters/spray plasters or aerosols. The choice of the auxiliary substances etc. and the amounts thereof to be employed depend on whether the medicament is to be administered orally, perorally, parenterally, intravenously, intraperitoneally, intradermally, intramuscularly, intranasally, buccally, rectally or locally, for example to the skin, the mucous membranes or into the eyes. Formulations in the form of tablets, coated tablets, capsules, granules, drops, juices and syrups are suitable for oral administration, and solutions, suspensions, easily reconstitutable dry formulations and sprays are suitable for parenteral, topical and inhalatory administration. Substituted cyclohexyl-1,4-diamine derivatives according to the invention in a depot, in dissolved form or in a plaster, optionally with the addition of agents which promote penetration through the skin, are suitable formulations for percutaneous administration. Formulation forms which can be used orally or percutaneously can release the substituted cyclohexyl-1,4-diamine derivatives according to the invention in a delayed manner. The substituted cyclohexyl-1,4-diamine derivatives according to the invention can also be used in parenteral long-term depot forms, such as e.g. implants or implanted pumps. Other further active compounds known to the expert can in principle be added to the medicaments according to the invention.

The amount of active compound to be administered to the patient varies according to the weight of the patient, the mode of administration, the indication and the severity of the disease. 0.00005 to 50 mg/kg, preferably 0.01 to 5 mg/kg of at least one substituted cyclohexyl-1,4-diamine derivative according to the invention are conventionally administered.

For all the above forms of the medicaments according to the invention, it is particularly preferable if the medicament also comprises, in addition to at least one substituted cyclohexyl-1,4-diamine derivative, a further active compound, in particular an opioid, preferably a potent opioid, in particular morphine, or an anaesthetic, preferably hexobarbital or halothane.

In a preferred form of the medicament, a substituted cyclohexyl-1,4-diamine derivative according to the invention contained therein is in the form of a pure diastereomer and/or enantiomer, a racemate or a non-equimolar or equimolar mixture of the diastereomers and/or enantiomers.

The ORL1 receptor, and also the other opioid receptors, have been identified in particular in the pain event. Substituted cyclohexyl-1,4-diamine derivatives according to the invention can accordingly be used for the preparation of a medicament for treatment of pain, in particular acute, neuropathic or chronic pain.

The invention therefore also provides the use of a substituted cyclohexyl-1,4-diamine derivative according to the invention for the preparation of a medicament for treatment of pain, in particular acute, visceral, neuropathic or chronic pain.

The radicals R⁰¹ and R⁰² have the meaning given for R¹ and R² for compounds according to formula I according to the invention, and can additionally independently of one another represent a protective group. The other radicals have the meaning given in formula I:

The diverse methods known to the expert for the preparation of amides are in principle suitable for the preparation of the substances according to the invention.

The process according to the invention is preferably based on linking substituted cyclohexane-1,4-diamines (WO 02090317) with suitable carboxylic acids and/or carboxylic acid derivatives, in particular carboxylic acid chlorides or bromides, and converting them into compounds according to the invention in this way.

Polar or nonpolar aprotic solvents to which an organic or inorganic auxiliary base, preferably tertiary amines, such as triethylamine, diusopropylethylamine or DMAP, has been added are employed in reactions with acid chlorides and bromides. In addition to such amines, pyridine, for example, is also suitable as a base and as a solvent. Preferably, acid chlorides are reacted with amines at −30 to +40° C. in methylene chloride or chloroform in the presence of triethylamine or pyridine and optionally catalytic amounts of DMAP. The entire range of methods known to the expert for the preparation of amides is also available for the reaction of carboxylic acids with a substituted cyclohexane-1,4-diamine (WO 02090317). The use of organic or inorganic dehydrating agents, such as e.g. a molecular sieve, magnesium sulfate, sulfuric acid or carboduimides, such as DCC or DIC, the latter optionally in the presence of HOBt, is advantageous in this context. These reactions are also preferably carried out in polar or nonpolar aprotic solvents at temperatures of between −30 and +110° C., preferably −10 and +40° C. If appropriate, the protective groups are then split off.

Example 235 2-(3-Chlorophenoxy)-N-(4-dimethylamino-4-phenylcyclohexyl)acetamide hydrochloride, More Polar Diastereoisomer

A cis/trans mixture of N,N-dimethyl-1-phenylcyclohexane-1,4-diamine (800 mg) was initially introduced into the reaction vessel with 540 μl triethylamine (1.05 molar equivalents) and catalytic amounts of DMAP (approx. 15 mg) in 20 ml methylene chloride, 790 mg (3-chlorophenoxy)acetyl chloride (1.05 molar equivalents) were added dropwise at −20° C. and the mixture was stirred overnight, while warming to room temperature. For working up, the mixture was rendered alkaline (pH>10) with one molar sodium hydroxide solution and extracted with diethyl ether (3×20 ml), the combined extracts were dried over sodium sulfate and filtered and the filtrate was concentrated to dryness. The crude product obtained (1.53 g) was chromatographed on silica gel (3.0×17 cm) with 100 ml diethyl ether followed by 500 ml diethyl ether/methanol (v:v=2:1). 346 mg of the more polar diastereoisomer of 2-(3-chlorophenoxy)-N-(4-dimethylamino-4-phenylcyclohexyl)acetamide were obtained and, as a solution in 5 ml 2-butanone and 5 ml ethyl acetate, were converted into the corresponding hydrochloride by addition of 16 μl water and 110 μl chlorotrimethylsilane (322 mg of a white solid, m.p. 220° C.).

Example 236 2-(3-Chlorophenoxy)-N-(4-dimethylamino-4-phenylcyclohexyl)acetamide hydrochloride, Less Polar Diastereoisomer

As described for Example 235, 356 mg of the less polar diastereoisomer of 2-(3-chlorophenoxy)-N-(4-dimethylamino-4-phenylcyclohexyl)acetamide were also obtained and, as a solution in 5 ml 2-butanone and 10 ml ethyl acetate, were converted into the corresponding hydrochloride by addition of 17 μl water and 117 μl chlorotrimethylsilane (338 mg of a white solid, m.p. 223-224.5° C.).

Example 237 N-(4-Dimethylamino-4-phenylcyclohexyl)-4-phenoxybutyramide hydrochloride, More Polar Diastereoisomer

As described for Example 235, a cis/trans mixture of N,N-dimethyl-1-phenylcyclohexane-1,4-diamine (800 mg) was reacted with 0.95 mg 4-phenoxybutyryl chloride and the crude product (1.48 g) was isolated analogously. By chromatography on silica gel (3.0×19 cm) with 100 ml diethyl ether followed by 400 ml diethyl ether/methanol (v:v=2:1), 450 mg of the more polar diastereoisomer of N-(4-dimethylamino-4-phenylcyclohexyl)-4-phenoxybutyramide were obtained and, as a solution in 5 ml 2-butanone and 5 ml ethyl acetate, were converted into the corresponding hydrochloride by addition of 21.3 μl water and 150 μl chlorotrimethylsilane (420 mg of a white solid, m.p. 191-192° C.).

Example 238 N-(4-Dimethylamino-4-phenylcyclohexyl)-4-phenoxybutyramide hydrochloride, Less Polar Diastereoisomer

As described for Example 237, 575 mg of the less polar diastereoisomer of N-(4-dimethylamino-4-phenylcyclohexyl)-4-phenoxybutyramide were also obtained and, as a solution in 5 ml 2-butanone and 5 ml ethyl acetate, were converted into the corresponding hydrochloride by addition of 27.2 μl water and 190 μl chlorotrimethylsilane (530 mg of a white solid, m.p. 194-197° C.).

Investigations of the activity of the compounds according to the invention:

Measurement of the ORL1 Binding

The cyclohexane derivatives of the general formula I were investigated in a receptor binding assay with ³H-nociceptin/orphanin FQ with membranes from recombinant CHO-ORL1 cells. This test system was conducted in accordance with the method described by Ardati et al. (Mol. Pharmacol., 51, 1997, p. 816-824). The concentration of ³H-nociceptin/orphanin FQ in these experiments was 0.5 nM. The binding assays were carried out with in each case 20 μg of membrane protein per 200 μl batch in 50 mM hepes, pH 7.4, 10 mM MgCl₂ and 1 mM EDTA. The binding to the ORL1 receptor was determined using in each case 1 mg WGA-SPA beads (Amersham-Pharmacia, Freiburg) by incubation of the batch for one hour at RT and subsequent measurement in a Trilux scintillation counter (Wallac, Finland). The affinity is stated in Table 1 as the nanomolar K_(i) value in or % inhibition at c=1 μM.

Measurement of the μ Binding

The receptor affinity for the human μ-opiate receptor was determined in a homogeneous batch in microtitre plates. For this, dilution series of the particular substituted cyclohexyl-1,4-diamine derivative to be tested were incubated in a total volume of 250 μl for 90 minutes at room temperature with a receptor membrane preparation (15-40 μg protein per 250 μl incubation batch) of CHO-K1 cells, which express the human μ-opiate receptor (RB-HOM receptor membrane preparation of NEN, Zaventem, Belgium), in the presence of 1 nmol/l of the radioactive ligand [³H]-naloxone (NET719, NEN, Zaventem, Belgium) and of 1 mg WGA-SPA beads (wheat germ agglutinin SPA beads from Amersham/Pharmacia, Freiburg, Germany). 50 mmol/l Tris-HCl supplemented with 0.05 wt. % sodium azide and with 0.06 wt. % bovine serum albumin was used as the incubation buffer. 25 μmol/l naloxone was additionally added for determination of the non-specific binding. When the ninety minutes of incubation time had ended, the microtitre plates were centrifuged off at 1,000 g for 20 minutes and the radioactivity was measured in a β-counter (Microbeta-Trilux, PerkinElmer Wallac, Freiburg, Germany). The percentage displacement of the radioactive ligand from its binding to the human μ-opiate receptor at a concentration of the test substances of 1 μmol/l was determined and was stated as the percentage inhibition (% inhibition) of the specific binding. In some cases, on the basis of the percentage displacement by different concentrations of the compounds of the general formula I to be tested, IC₅₀ inhibitory concentrations which cause 50 per cent displacement of the radioactive ligand were calculated. By conversion by means of the Cheng-Prusoff relationship, Ki values were obtained for the test substances.

Measurement of the Serotonin Reuptake

In order to be able to carry out these in vitro studies, synaptosomes are freshly isolated from rat brain areas. In each case a so-called “P₂” fraction, which is prepared in accordance with the instructions of Gray and Whittaker (E. G. Gray and V. P. Whittaker (1962) J. Anat. 76, 79-88), is used. For the 5HT uptake, these vesicular particles are isolated from the medulla+pons region of male rat brains.

A detailed description of the method can be found in the literature (M. Ch. Frink, H.-H. Hennies, W. Englberger, M. Haurand and B. Wilffert (1996) Arzneim.-Forsch./Drug Res. 46 (III), 11, 1029-1036).

Measurement of the Noradrenaline Reuptake

In order to be able to carry out these in vitro studies, synaptosomes are freshly isolated from rat brain areas. In each case a so-called “P₂” fraction, which is prepared in accordance with the instructions of Gray and Whittaker (E. G. Gray and V. P. Whittaker (1962) J. Anat. 76, 79-88), is used. For the NA uptake, these vesicular particles are isolated from the hypothalamus of male rat brains.

A detailed description of the method can be found in the literature (M. Ch. Frink, H.-H. Hennies, W. Englberger, M. Haurand and B. Wilffert (1996) Arzneim.-Forsch./Drug Res. 46 (III), 11, 1029-1036).
